Vanderhoof RCMP is investigating a collision between a motorcycle and a pick-up truck where alcohol is believed to be a factor.
On Tuesday, July 26, 2022, just after 8:00 p.m., Frontline officers with the Vanderhoof RCMP detachment attended a collision involving a motorcycle and a pick-up truck on Mapes Road. During the course of the investigation, the driver of the pick-up truck was arrested as officers determined that his abilities to operate a motor vehicle were impaired by alcohol.
